GENERAL RuTLEG's speech in the
case of the Burton Stock Gar Company
will be found of interest. He is one of
the few great lawyers of the country
who can invest dry legal argument
with readable relish. This particu.
lar case, moreover, involves many
points that are of near Importance to
the general public and deserve attentive
consideration.

THE POLICE REGULATIONS.

The police Regulations" that have
been promulgated by the District Com
mis,ioners under authority of an act
passed by Congress In January last,
a. d Of which synopsis appeared in
THE CRIrIc yesterday, will be closely
scrutinized by citizens generally and
in all probability will elicit more or
less adverse criticism. II is IN the
nature Of people TO be critical and
sometimes ocusoiiou3 with regard to
the laws under which they live. II is
natural and proper in free country
,ha, they should be; At the same time
they ought always 10 lie Just towards
those who are called upon to make and
administer the laws, especially where
this duty is complicated and embr
rassed from various causes, as II is in
the District of Columbia.
We shall certainly attempt no review
or analysis of the new Regulations"
until they are published in full, as they
will be carly next week, We prefer
rather TO congratulate the Commission
ers upon the completion Of work
wi ich has necessarily involved an i'm.
monse deal of labor, but which, next
TO n codification of the District laws
and ordinances, Is something most
needed by the people of Washington.
1t is safe TO assume that the Commits.
sioners have made a good job of 1t,
though errors and imperfections are
possible and even probable in such an
undertaking. What was needed was
something In the nature of system as
substitute for Notwithstanding
TO serve as guide 10 the Police De-
partment in the more effective admins
tration of its powers, and at the same
time TO better inform the community.
large of It's rights, immunities and Oh.
llgations--and this great want the Dis
trict authorities have supplied.
THE CRITIC gives the Commissioners
credit for desiring the National Capital
TO be the best governed city on the con-
tinent, and to Colonel Moore, the Major
of Police, similar credit for an ambition
TO make his department the model of the
country. An important step has now
been taken in this direction, though
much still remains to be done 10 perfect
the machinery of our local government.
The Grand Jury has just made some
excellent suggestions upon this point.
The Central Committee will doubtless
agree in the recommendation of many
desired reforms and improvements: and
with all these influences combined In q
common cause, there is reason to be.
lieve that the next Congress will be in
abetter mood 10 legisla.e for the ma
terial interests Of the seat OF govern
ment than any of its predecessors in
many years.

Tunxis Tribe to be Instituted at Pythian
 Hall Tonight.
 This is the fifteenth day of the Hunting Moon, Great Son of Discovery 396, dating from 1492, the year of the discovery of America by Columbus. A sun will have passed and nights sleep will have be- gun when the new tribe of the Improved Order of Red Men will be instituted in this city this evening.
 It will be called Tunxis Tribe, and is the tenth of the order in this State. The principal officers are: Judge George H. Cowell, Sachem; Fred w. Tate, Senior Sagamore; T. H. Hewitt, Junior Sagamore; l.. s. Crockett, Chief of Records; Theodore Meyer, Assistant Chief of Records; J. H. Guernsey, Keeper of Wampum. The tribe has secured Pythian Hall, and will meet every Thursday evening.
 Elaborate preparations have been made for the institution of the tribe this even ing. The ceremonies will be conducted by Great Sachem Robbins of Norwich and other great officers A degree staff of 20 from the Seymour tribe will arrive on the evening train, their paraphernalia preced- ing them. Upon this staff will devolve the duty of teaching the unsophisticated members of Tunxis TriEe, the working of the degrees. A prominent member of the various secret organizations here expressed willingness to offer his person up as a sacrifice to the Seymour warriors. He is high up in Masonry and all other societies, and intimates that he does not want to enter the organization for nominal initia~ tory fee but wants to be put through the degrees. It is promised that he shall be gratifed this evening. This, with the in stitution of the tribe, will constitute the ceremonies, after which there will be a banquet at Music Hall.

ENTERTAINMENTS.
JACQUES OPERA HOUSE.


 The fact that James c. Roach appears at the Opera House tonight under the man. agement of J. M Hill is sufficient puaran- tee that the people will not be disappointed. The Irish comedy, "Dan Darcy" too, is well known to the people, and MT. Roach is great success in the title role. Says the New York Daily News: 'Mr. Roach is unlike any other Irish comedian seen here in years. Standing alone in his method and manner, MT. Roach at once takes rank as one of the best actors in his line on the stage. The play is clean, bright, pathetic, dramatic; and the dialogue sparkles with wit"
 Seats will go on sale for all performances oe Atkinson & Cooks company on Satur- day at 9 a. m. at the Park Drug store. The indications are that there will be large demand aAd it would be well for those wishing good seats to buy early Atkinson & Cook have always given the theatre goers of this city first class entertainments at moderate prices, and have always had us bette:: balanced company to produce their plays than the general run of com panies that pley here. This season the cest is no exception to the rule as our ex- changes speak of them in the same glow ing terms os formerly. The following is from the Newburyport (Mass.) Daily News. "The Atkinson & Cook commenced their weeks engagement at the Opera House last evening with a full house. The play was '49.' and although it has been played here several times by other companies yet never was it received with greater satisfaction than last evening. Miss Lou Ames as Carrots was just perfect and Sullivan as '49' cannot be beat. The play was we'll rendered throughout, the fine stage settings adding greatly to the effect

Fouls, Waterbury 1, Bridgeport 2.

The result of last nights polo games places Hartford near the head of the league with Bridgeport tail ender-its usual place.
 It cost the Brooklyn club $9, 900 to secure Pitcher Carruther's release from the St Louis team, and his consent to play at Brooklyn.
 MT D. H. Buckley received this morning from Richard K. Fox of New York, a very neat silk embroidered handkerchief repre- senting the colors of Jake Kilrain the pugilist.
 Hanlan, Ross and Lee, the oarsmen, have been defeated in their suit for $500 against John McMahon, proprietor of 8 hotel at Sheepshead Bay. McMahon promised to give them $500 if they would start race on certain day in front of his hotel, but they waited four days on account of rough water and McMahon refused to pay the money.
 Last nights games in the Hartford pool tournament were between Pease of this city and Elliott of New Lon lon. Pease won II to g. There was not much interest in the games as both men stood low in the race Pease and Elliott have finished their series, each having won and lost 4.
 The Hartfords defeated the Meridens again last night by the score of 4 to2. The game was a fine exhibition of scientific polo, though the visitors were rather rough at times. Perkins gave poor satisfaction and though he called four fouls on the visitors he was hooted by the audience who thought he should have called 20. Riley the king of goal tenders, was again the great feature of the game.
